Is there any progress on the graphics API Adam Wilson is

Adam Wilson's DConf '14 talk [1] was an interesting and
promising one.
After that there were some commits a month later, but nothing
after
that. I haven't seen discussions or other activity on the
graphics front
since. Now another DConf has passed, and I wonder what
happened to
Aurora? Were there technical reasons that it hasn't progressed
much
further, and if so, can these be addressed?

To my knowledge, it was just too large of a project so was
abandoned.
But was it a conscious decision to drop it, or did it just die?
Would different design decisions have made a difference? What are
the lessons that can be learned from Aurora for any future
graphics initiatives?
